Congratulations to Dr. Russell Witte on his recently awarded NIH grant!
Dr. Witte has been awarded $3,434,477 from the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering to develop the first safe, real-time and high resolution system for mapping electricity in the human brain. The Transcranial Acoustoelectric Brain Imaging (tABI) that will be developed by Dr. Witte’s team aims at transforming our understanding of normal brain function and help diagnose, monitor, and treat a wide variety of neurologic, psychiatric, and behavioral disorders.
The project is carried out in collaboration with: Stephen Cowen, PhD (Psychology, UA), Katalin Gothard, PhD (Physiology UA), Nan-kuei Chen, PhD (BME, UA); Ying Chou, PhD (Psychology, UA), Leonid Kunyansky, PhD (Mathematics, UA), Martin Weinand, MD (Surgery, UA), Willard Kasoff, MD (Surgery, UA), Jennifer Becker, MD (DMI, UA), Zhen Xu, PhD (BME; U.
